This is a direct bolt on replacement for the factory wheels, with no suspension adjustment required. If anyone is looking for full sized spares, or wants to upgrade their Sport or EXL wheels, I'll have a set of Touring wheels up for sale very soon.
Very nice. What size tires are those? Thx.
 
This tire looks pretty darn good, anyone have any thoughts on it?

Just my experience with these tires -- they could not be balanced correctly. I went through Discount Tire and after several attempts they were replaced with the Nitto Terra Grappler G2 tires. Discount Tire was great. I only had to pay for the difference in cost between the Continentals and the Nittos. This was for my previously owned Toyota Tacoma (traded in for Passport). I also had the same Nittos on my Jeep Wrangler. Never had a problem with the Nittos and will be going back to them when I change out my set-up for the Passport. Again, just my very recent experience. YMMV.
 
Ha. Taking my potential set-up! I'm also looking at the Bullys and Nittos. Great minds think alike! (y)

Had Nitto Terra Grapplers on my previous Tacoma and Wrangler before that. I personally wouldn't think twice about getting them again. Great tire. Can't compare noise level of them but I didn't find them "loud". Before the Nittos on my Tacoma I had the Continental TerrainContact A/T. Couldn't get them to balance, changed them out for the Nittos and never looked back.

Side note: remember that overall diameter is one thing but the wheel offset is another area that could cause rubbing.

I'm on the fence whether to drop money in to new wheels and tires.

If I keep the OEM wheels, I wonder if a 275/45-20 would cause any rubbing issues?

OEM tires (265/45-20) are 10.4" wide and 29.4" tall.

275/45-20 tires are 10.8" wide and 29.7" tall.

These Cooper tires look really good to me: http://us.coopertire.com/tires/cooper-zeon-ltz.aspx

^ Yeah, that's my guess too. However the OEM wheels are 8.5" wide which is the bottom end for a 275 tire.

Thanks. (y)

Started my journey looking at 18 inch wheels but went the 17 route.

I have to say they look much better than in the pictures. As the manager said at Discount Tire after the install, "if this is how it looked at the dealership I'd go and buy one right now." Ha!

:D
